Abstract

Jietacins A and B, new azoxy antibiotics, were isolated from the culture broth of a streptomycete. The antibiotics have the molecular formulae of C₁₈H₃₄N₂O₂ and C₁₉H₃₆N₂O₂, respectively. Both possess an azoxy group. They have potent activity against the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus lignicolus, and are weakly active against some fungi.
